Dream Theater will unveil its self-titled 12th album Sept. 24 via Roadrunner Records. The group recorded the collection at Cove City Sound Studios in Glen Cove, NY.

"This is the first self-titled album of our career and there is nothing I can think of that makes a statement of musical and creative identity stronger than that," guitarist John Petrucci said in a press release. "We've fully explored all of the elements that make us unique, from the epic and intense to the atmospheric and cinematic."

The forthcoming fall release follows 2011's "A Dramatic Turn of Events," which peaked at No. 8 on The Billboard 200 and at the top of the magazine's Tastemaker Albums chart.
